In model-based fault diagnosis for dynamic systems with uncertain parameters, an envelope of all fault-free behaviors can be determined from the model and used as a reference for detecting faults. We demonstrate here a method for generating an envelope that is rigorously guaranteed to be complete, but without significant overestimation. The method is based on an interval approach, but uses Tayl...

Lipid membranes envelope live cells and mediate vital biological functions through regulated spatiotemporal dynamics. This review highlights the role of neutron scattering, among other approaches, in uncovering dynamic properties lipid membranes.

We present a new iterative procedure for solving the multiple stopping problem in discrete time and discuss the stability of the algorithm. The algorithm produces monotonically increasing approximations of the Snell envelope, which coincide with the Snell envelope after finitely many steps. Contrary to backward dynamic programming, the algorithm allows to calculate approximative solutions with ...

BACKGROUND The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells is a highly dynamic compartment where membranes readily undergo fission and fusion to reorganize the cytoplasmic architecture, and to import, export and transport various cargos within the cell. The double membrane of the nuclear envelope that surrounds the nucleus, segregates the chromosomes from cytoplasm and regulates nucleocytoplasmic transport t...

We have performed systematic studies of intensity-related dynamics of the pulse repetition and carrier-envelope offset frequencies in mode-locked Ti:sapphire lasers. We compared the results far two laser systems that have different intracavity dispersion-compensation schemes. We found that the carrier-envelope phase noise and its dynamic response depend critically on the mode-locking conditions...

Abstract The walls in a building envelope have the largest contact area with exterior environment, and, therefore, considerable portion of thermal energy can be lost through compared to other parts envelope. For energy-saving purposes, transmittance is typically limited by performance standards at national level. However, presence ventilated air-space behind external cladding, which has variabl...

Two envelope membranes delimit plastids, the defining organelles of plant cells. The inner and outer envelope membranes are unique in their protein and lipid composition. Several studies have attempted to establish the proteome of these two membranes; however, differentiating between them is difficult due to their close proximity. Here, we describe a novel approach to distinguish the localizati...
